ISL6612AIBZ-T

Gate Driver Overview

The ISL6612AIBZ-T is a synchronous half-bridge gate driver manufactured by Renesas Electronics Corporation. It features two independent drivers with non-inverting inputs, designed for driving N-channel MOSFETs in high-voltage applications. The device supports a maximum bootstrap supply voltage of 36 V and operates within a power supply range of 10.8 V to 13.2 V. It delivers peak output currents of 1.25 A source and 2 A sink. Typical rise and fall times are 26 ns and 18 ns, respectively. The component is housed in an 8-SOIC package with a thermal pad and functions reliably across a junction temperature range of 0°C to 125°C.

Gate Driver Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'AIBZ' against official Renesas documentation to confirm the disabled over-temperature protection feature, as variants differ significantly. Confirm availability status, as this part number may be discontinued or subject to last-time-buy restrictions. Ensure the ordering suffix matches the exact functional specification required for the design, particularly regarding fault protection mechanisms.

Gate Driver Selection Notes

Select this component when a synchronous half-bridge driver with disabled over-temperature protection is required. Compare against the ISL6612EIBZ-T variant if integrated thermal shutdown functionality is necessary for the application. Consider the 8-SOIC package constraints for thermal management and PCB layout. Verify that the 36 V high-side voltage rating aligns with the target circuit's bus voltage and bootstrap requirements.
